AEROCITY VARANASI
By Quick answer: Purvanchal combines world-famous crafts (Banarasi silk, Bhadohi carpets), a strong agricultural base (Chandauli rice, Ghazipur produce), industrial estates (Ramnagar, Karkhiyaon), heavy pilgrimage and tourism traffic to Varanasi, and major logistics links (airport, Ring Road, Pt. DDU Junction, the freight corridor and the Ganga waterway). Bringing these thousands of businesses online, on one regional platform, creates value for sellers, buyers and the whole region.
The building blocks
- Crafts and textiles: Banarasi silk and brocade, carpets and dhurries, brass, wooden toys and meenakari.
- Agriculture and food: rice, vegetables, fruit such as langda mango, and food processing.
- Industry: Ramnagar Industrial Area, Karkhiyaon Agro Park, Chandpur and district units.
- Tourism and pilgrimage: Kashi Vishwanath, the ghats, Sarnath and festivals that bring visitors year-round.
- Logistics: Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport, the Ring Road, Pt. DDU Junction, the Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor and the Ramnagar terminal on National Waterway 1.
Where the opportunity lies
- B2B trade: connecting manufacturers and wholesalers with retailers across UP, Bihar and beyond.
- Exports: GI products reaching overseas buyers through better cataloguing and cargo services.
- Services: transport, warehousing, machines, finance and digital services booked online.
- Tourism commerce: hotels, tours and local shopping booked before visitors arrive.
- Real estate: transparent listings with approvals for plots, shops and industrial land.
What is holding it back
